Boys Tennis vs Shorewood, Lynnwood and Everett

The boys tennis team had a hard week, falling 7-0 to Shorewood and 6-1 to Lynnwood.

In the Shorewood match on 10/4, 3rd doubles Tom Dale and Jacob Nelson split the first two sets, winning the first 7-5 and losing the second 6-4. Due to time constraints and since the outcome between the two teams was already decided, there wasn't a 3rd set, but a super-tiebreaker. In that period, Shorewood was able to pull away and win 10-4. The win left Shorewood undefeated at 11-0.

Lynnwood came to town on Thursday, and again the doubles team of Nelson and Dale was the bright spot of the day, winning their match in straight sets, 6-2, 6-1. Also in doubles, the #1 team of Harrison Miller and David Kusnick also went to a super tiebreaker. Oak Harbor won the first set 6-2, Lynnwood the second 6-3, then Lynnwood captured the tiebreaker 10-5.

Friday's match was a makeup from Wednesday, at Everett. Oak Harbor played hard but could not win the 4 matches needed to win the day. #1 singles Carlos Neto Gioia, an exchange student from Brazil, won 6-3, 7-5 as did #3 singles Will Southard, in 3 sets 4-6, 6-3, 6-4. Also winning were first doubles Harrison Miller and David Kusnick, 3-6, 6-3 then 13-11 in the tiebreaker.
